So you’ve watched Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and written it off as a frivolous romcom? Tsk tsk. The movie has a wealth of life lessons in store, that’ll open your eyes and change the way you look at the universe forever. If you missed the true essence of HSKD, here’s a quick recap of the seven invaluable life lessons we learned from this masterpiece:

That Bollywood will never run out of DDLJ tributes.Know what would make for the best ever tribute to this 90s classic? Leaving it the hell alone! Call us when you manage to get the magical duo of Kajol & SRK together again.

That Dharma Productions will never run out of gay jokes.Again, we repeat, know what would help show solidarity for the entire LGBT community at large? Go ahead, read our mind.

That Alia Bhatt has been watching too many reruns of Jab We Met.It’s like someone injected a shot of Geet’s brand of bubbliness directly into her system. Either that, or she got high each day before the shoot – All in the interest of method acting, of course.

That average middle class guys have muscles like three Salman Khans put together.We aren’t saying that all middle class guys don’t look like they’ve spent the past decade in the gym using John Abraham for dumbbells. All we are saying is that if we ever met one actually in real life, we’d be more likely to believe that.

That weddings are incomplete without fight sequences.Do remind us again what sort of family has a posse of goons at their command these days? It’s the twenty first century; if you really do want to kill someone, spamming them with eight Candy Crush requests per minute is the way to go.

That people update their marital status on Facebook mid-phera.What next? Mowing your grass in the shape of the words ‘Newly Married’ on Farmville before the bidaai?

That lehengas are the most important part of the wedding.A Manish Malhotra one, at that. Accept money from random strangers, get into bed with them, if you will but get one or die trying. Honestly, if Manish Malhotra lehengas were all it took for a girl to say yes for marriage, KRK wouldn’t be single.

GM (NYSE: GM - news) will recall more than 450,000 models of the 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, among others, in which control module software in the four-wheel drive system could automatically switch to neutral without driver input.

As a result, a vehicle, while parked, could “roll away if the parking brake is not set,” GM said. If the vehicle is in motion, no power will go to the wheels, the automaker added.

GM said it knew of no crashes or injuries related to this problem, or to those that prompted the other two recalls it announced. The recall affects vehicles in the US and Canada.

GM said it was recalling about 4,800 2013-2014 Chevrolet Caprice police cars and 2014 Chevrolet SS sport sedans in the US to address a problem that can stop the windshield wipers from working.

The third recall involves about 2,050 2014 Chevrolet Corvettes, most in the US, to address a problem with the rear shock.

GM has already recalled more than 20 million vehicles in 2014.

The Detroit automaker is under investigations by Congress, the Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission over its delayed recall of cars with ignition switch problems related to at least 13 deaths.

In February — 11 years after the ignition switch defect was detected — GM began recalling 2.6 million Chevrolet Cobalts, Saturn Ions and Skys, Pontiac 5s and Solstices made between 2003 and 2011.
